Abstract excerpt
Diethylnitrosamine (DEN) is a genotoxic carcinogen, but in vivo DNA-damaging activities are not usually evident in hematopoietic cells because the short-lived active metabolite is formed mainly in the liver. DEN therefore represented an interesting case for evaluating the performance characteristics of blood-based endpoints of genotoxicity that have been automated using flow cytometric analysis-frequency of...
